    Last nights Marquez loses to Khan

    As much as I hate to say it, I think Khan takes a wide decision... maybe even getting a stoppage from the ref if Marquez legs go like they did last night
    JMM has clearly lost pace, even compared to the first Diaz fight, I just don't think he can match Khan shot for shot
    Khan will just stay outside like he did against Paulie, and I don't think there's a lot JMM can do about it... Khan is way to cautious these days to exchange so unless his chin really is horrible and he gets caught with something big, he takes it
    Katsidis v JMM would be brutal, also.

    You would have to favor Khan based on his speed and his size/reach advantage but Marquez is still a very good counterpuncher which may cause Khan problems because of his weak chin.

    If Marquez could carry some power to 140, he has a decent chance against Khan.

      He was fighting at that pace cause Diaz was allowing him to.

      People seem to think that JMM fights at some ridiculous monsterous pace cause his fights with Barrera and Pac were high-octane but they're the exeption. He won't brawl unless he's dragged into one, people read so much into a handful of his fights its crazy.

      Considering his last outing at such a high weight for him I think he performed brilliantly.

        I just don't see him getting the opportunity to against Khan... who's basically as cautious as Wlad these days
        Maybe if Khan went in for the kill, sensing that JMM had nothing left in the tank... then obviously JMM has a chance
        But I just don't think thats Khan anymore.

          i think khan would beat him the speed and size would be too much

          marquez still looked great though although i don't fancy anyone's chances against Katsidas

          maybe taking the payday against Khan is the best move

            A younger Marquez outclasses Katsidis
            If he can still take the high pressure, there's definitely a win there for JMM.

              Paulie was able to tag Khan on occasion. Marquez would eventually land big.

              If he was able to bring up some power to 140, he can hurt Khan.

              Khan's combination of size and speed will be alot for Marquez to handle though considering he's a small lightweight as it is.

                  Marquez shouldn't be fighting above 135 anyway!!Khan is a welterweight sized jr.welter so he should beat Marquez because he's bigger,faster,stronger & has more power,but how would Khan fare against fellow jr.welterweight elites is the real question,why doesn't he fight Maidana??
